There's alot of action on Waco.And,the rivers around it.
Are you banking or boating?
I have good luck using shad and perch.
Matter of fact that's all I use. I've wasted soo much money on manufactured baits and store bought frozen baits.if you don't already have a cast net get one and use live perch or Shad and hunting cats will be alot less frustrating.
If you want an in depth great tour and lesson of the Lake there's a fella on this site named Fish Hauler Guide Service. He can put you on them.
Its Been on my to do list to book a trip with him for awhile.
